【 摘 要 】

Category:HindfootIntroduction/Purpose:Lateral column lengthening (LCL) with calcaneal osteotomy has been increasingly used for reconstruction in flexible flat foot reconstruction. The aims of this study were to 1) evaluate the effects of variably sized LCL blocks on the restoration of alignment in an acute flat foot cadaveric model; 2) create a computer algorithm to more objectively measure foot alignment; and 3) develop an acute flat foot model that does not require cyclic loading for creating a type IIB flat foot. Determining if overcorrection with lateral column lengthening can occur would provide guidance surgeons to avoid lateral column overload. A computer guided measurement program could make studies more comparable. An acute flat foot model would clarify the ligament deficiencies necessary to create a type IIB flat foot.Methods:A type IIB flat foot model was used in which the medial and medial-plantar fibers of the calcaneonavicular (CN), the interosseous talo-calcaneal (ITCL) and the cervical (CL...
